H.E. Tsem Rinpoche with his beloved dogs, Oser and Dharma
About four years ago, Joel Brown, the founder of Addicted2Success.com, an Australian entrepreneur, speaker and author visited Kechara Forest Retreat in Bentong, Malaysia. He was very much inspired by H.E. Tsem Rinpoche’s life story and Rinpoche’s creative and unconventional method of presenting ancient Buddhist philosophies in ways relevant to the 21st century’s global conscious community. Rinpoche’s ability to distil the profound essence of the Buddha’s timeless wisdom as solutions for everyday problems has attracted over 16 million visitors to Rinpoche’s blog.
Joel posted a selection of 20 quotes from Rinpoche, and we have now made them into pictorial forms so that these inspirational quotes can be shared with many more. Below is what Joel wrote on his website.
I am currently staying at the Kechara Forest Retreat in Malaysia and while enjoying the relaxing surroundings I came across this amazing collection of Buddhist quotes by Tsem Tulku Rinpoche which he has asked me to share with the world.
Tsem Tulku Rinpoche has had a colorful life of experiences. He was born in Taiwan, raised in New Jersey, USA. He is the son to an ex monk from Tibet and his mother is Princess Dewa from Xinjiang who is a direct line from Genghis Khan. To top it all off he is a blogging, new age, and amazingly creative Rinpoche who has amassed millions of followers with his teachings across the globe to inspire as many people as possible to be conscious of our world and compassionate for one another.
Read on and be prepared to be enlightened by Tsem Rinpoche’s collection of inspirational Buddhist quotes.

After Buddha passed into Paranirwana, the sangha and the followers of Buddha practicing by following the Buddhist vows created by Buddha as a guide line. My Guru has too passed into clear light, what he left for the students and followers through out the world with countless teachings. Rinpoche’s quotes is like the guide line in my life. These 20 quotes are something you and I can practice everyday, to penetrate samsara’s delusions that constantly blocking the mind.
These quotes are among the many that Rinpoche had quoted. They are full of wisdom, thought provoking and applicable in everyone’s lives regardless of their faith.
These quotes are a reminder to us in one way or another. Not all of it applies to us daily but it does apply to us when a situation or condition arises.
